Every year, City Church California holds a special "Build Together" offering where we all give a one-time sacrificial financial gift over and above our tithes. We will do this to propel our church into all we believe God wants to do in California.
These offerings have never been about equal giving but equal sacrifice. We believe that when we collectively give sacrificially, God responds extravagantly.
PREPARATION
13 years ago, God blessed us with our miracle church building. Since then, we’ve seen growth in every area as God has moved faithfully in and through City Church California. With this growth comes a new and welcome challenge- we’ve reached our building’s capacity! God is building through us, and we believe He is saying that now is the time to prepare for a bigger building that will accommodate our needs now, with ample room to grow. We believe that as we step out in faith to prepare for a new building, God will be faithful to make a way.
PLANTING
Since the start, we’ve been committed to serving those within and outside our four walls through local outreach, missions, and benevolence. We have seen lives transformed in our community through our ongoing partnership with local organizations such as Love Life, Ventura Rescue Mission, and New Life Counseling Center. We have also seen lives transformed globally through our support of over 20 missionaries and organizations spreading the Gospel worldwide. We’re committed to building the global church, and through this offering, we are excited to sow a seed of generosity into a local church plant in Santa Barbara that will launch in the fall of 2025. Our natural response to everything we’ve been given is to give back. Generosity is love in action.
Build Together Offering

Each year we gather for our annual Build Together Offering, a special Sunday to plant a seed and accelerate the vision.

1. Discover
Reflect on what your impact has done, and look ahead to where our impact is going.

There is no right amount for your or your family. We believe God will reveal his heart for generosity as we seek Him.

Plant a seed of generosity. No matter the size of your contribution, there’s power in commitment.
